Turn the Winbot unit over to attach the Cleaning Pads. Attach the large Cleaning Pad to the front floating plate,

making sure to cover the entire plate. Attach the small Cleaning Pad to the small area provided at the rear of the unit. Make sure the Rear Cleaning Pad is placed exactly within its velcro area. Take care not to cover any part of the Cupule (suction ring), or the plate that holds it, wi th t he R ea r Cl ea ni ng P ad .

After ensuring the Winbot is correctly placed on the glass, press the “Start/Pause” button on the Remote Control or press the “Start/Pause”

button directly on the Winbot unit. The product will use automatic cleaning mode to measure and clean the window. When Winbot is finished cleaning, it will return to its start position, the Indicator Light will flash BLUE and the unit will emit a song to indicate the end of the cleaning cycle.

To pause Winbot during the cleaning cycle, press the “Start/Pause” button on the Remote Control or press the “Start/Pause” button directly on the

Winbot unit. The product will then pause and go into stand-by mode. To restart the cleaning process, press the “Start/Pause” again on the Remote Control or directly on the Winbot unit.

When the Winbot is done cleaning remove it from the window. Grasp the handle of the unit and move the switch under the handle to the OFF position

2.4 Product Precautionar y Items

2.5 Children Safety

OFF ON

● Please make sure that both Cleaning Pads are installed on Winbot before

cleaning.

● Winbot can NOT be used to clean stains such as paint, or windows with stickers

attached, as these may cause suction failure.

● Do NOT place any obstacles on the window or the window sill that would obstruct

Winbot’s cleaning path. Please make sure there is 4” clearance between the window and curtains so Winbot can move freely on the window. Blinds/shades must be pulled completely open. Outside windows should have 4” clearance between window and any outdoor plants or shrubs.

● Since cleaning the window does not take a long time, it is recommended that a

person remain in the vicinity so when the Winbot is done it can be removed from the window. Should there be a dirty spot left on the window, use the Remote Control to guide the unit to clean the spot, return the unit to a convenient place and remove from the window.

● The Safety Pod MUST be used for cleaning the outside of a window above ground

level as described in the Safety Pod section of this Instruction Manual.

● The Power Adapter should be plugged into a receptacle as close to the window as

possible. The Power Adapter must never be allowed to hang from its cord. It should rest on the floor at all times.

● The supply cord from the Power Adapter must be free to move as the unit cleans

the inside of the window. If the unit is cleaning the outside of the window, enough supply cord must be on the outside of the window so as not to restrict movement of the unit.

● When Winbot has finished cleaning (or electrical connection has failed) safely

remove it from the window. Grasp the handle of the unit and move the switch under the handle to the OFF position (far left). While still grasping the unit, insert finger into the Air Release Trigger and pull up on it. Remove the unit from the window when the suction has diminished.

● The suction generated on the bottom of the unit is strong. Do NOT place hands

near the bottom of the unit as it could suction to the skin. If this occurs move the switch under the handle to the OFF position (far left) and slowly remove the unit from the body part.

● Please check the Driving Tread (see Product Diagram) on the bottom of the unit

for damage before each use. Damaged Driving Treads can weaken traction on the window and need to be replaced. Please call Customer Service at 1-888- 966-0895 or visit www.ecovacs.com to order.

Outside windows should have 4" clearance between window and any outdoor plants or shrubs.

4.1 Placement of the Winbot and Safety Pod use

4. Using the Product

≥4 inc hes

● Turn the Winbot unit over to attach the Cleaning Pads. Attach the large Cleaning Pad

to the front floating plate, making sure to cover the entire plate. Attach the small cleaning pad to the small area provided in the rear of the unit. Make sure the Rear Cleaning Pad is placed exactly within its velcro area. Take care not to cover any part of the Cupule (suction ring), or the plate that holds it, with the Rear Cleaning Pad. NOTE: Cleaning Pads are removable and machine washable.

● After charging the Winbot's Back Up Battery, plug the Winbot into the Power Adapter

and plug the Power Adapter into a receptacle close to the window to be cleaned.

Note: Before operating the Winbot, please carefully read the entire contents of this Instruction Manual. Any operation inconsistent with the instructions in the Manual may cause damage to the product or cause personal injury.

The Winbot is intended to be used for maintenance cleaning on common windows. The product is NOT intended to replace heavy duty or first time cleaning.

Warning

If Winbot is used to clean a window above ground level, the Safety Pod MUST be used.

● To use Winbot on an interior window that is at ground level, please skip the

Safety Pod instructions (the next 6 steps).

● To use the Winbot on the outside of a window above ground level, the Safety

Pod MUST be used.

● Make sure that there is enough power cord for the WINBOT to clean the entire

window without restricting its movement. If there is not enough cord, it is not safe to use the WINBOT on that particular window until a WINBOT Extension Cord is attached(Extension Cord sold separately).

● Loop one end of the Safety Rope around the Safety Pod’s channel and pull it

tight.

● Tie the other end of the Safety Rope to the nut on the power cord and tighten.

● If an Extension Cord is attached the Safety Rope should still be tied to the

nut on the power cord.

Note: Do NOT attach the Safety Rope to the thin part of the cord.

● Press the Safety Pod suction cup FIRMLY on the inside, lower corner of the window.

Make sure the Safety Pod suction cup is securely in place.

● Immediately prior to placing the Winbot on the window, lightly spray the Front

Cleaning Pad with the provided Cleaning Solution. The pad should be damp, not wet. Do NOT spray the back pad as this pad is for wiping the window after the treads.

● Grasp the Winbot by the handle and move the switch under the handle to the

ON position (Center). Place the Winbot horizontally on the window, making sure it is at least 4 inches from the lower corners of the window. A slight noise will be heard. This is the vacuum motor creating suction to hold the Winbot onto the window.

● When the indicator light turns BLUE, Winbot has attached itself to the

window and you can let go of the handle.

● If cleaning the outside of a window, close the window as far as possible

without pinching or damaging the supply cord.

4.2 Product Star t

4.3 Product Pause

4.4 Product Stop

● Once the unit is attached to the window, press the Start/Pause button on the

unit or the Start/Pause button on the Remote Control. The Winbot will use its automatic cleaning mode to clean the window.

NOTE:

● Winbot can NOT be used to clean stains such as paint, or windows with

stickers attached, as these may cause suction failure.

● Windows with uneven surfaces, such as frosted, textured, patterned or

leaded glass are not suitable to be cleaned by the Winbot.

● Windows with a film, coating or tint are not suitable to be cleaned by the

Winbot as it may damage the coating.

● After Winbot has finished cleaning one window, if the Cleaning Pads are

excessively dirty, please replace them with a clean, completely dry set. Cleaning Pads are machine washable. Extra sets of Cleaning Pads can be purchased by calling Customer Service at 1-888-966-0895.

● Do NOT use the unit outside when it is raining, snowing or colder than 40º F as

it could damage the product and could cause electrical problems.

● If the product needs to be paused during the cleaning process, press the

“Start/Pause” button on the Remote Control or press the “Start/Pause”

button on the unit. The product will pause and wait for further

instructions.

● While the unit is in the Pause Mode, the Remote can be used to move the unit

around the window to clean any area by pressing the appropriate directional arrow. To return the unit to automatic mode, press the “Start/Pause” button on the Remote Control or directly on the unit.

.......

● After the Winbot has finished cleaning the window, it will return to the place it

started, emit a song and the Indicator Light will flash BLUE. If the stopping location is not convenient to remove the unit, use the Remote Control to move it by pressing the appropriate directional arrow until the unit is where you can grasp the handle more conveniently.

● To remove the Winbot from the window, grasp the handle of the unit, move the

switch under the handle to the OFF position (far left). While still grasping the unit, insert finger into the Air Release Trigger and pull up on it. Remove the unit from the window when the suction has diminished.

● Use the Finishing Cloth to wipe away any mark left from removing Winbot.

● Do NOT try to use the handle as leverage to pry the unit from the window as that

could damage the product. If the Air Release does not work, hold the handle for 45-60 seconds and the unit will release itself from the window.

● Always store the unit with the switch in the OFF position (far left) and in the

original box, if possible.

5.2 Remote Control

Before using the remote control, please confirm that the batteries have been installed in accordance with the

diagram on the Remote Control casing.

● The remote control uses two AAA batteries (provided).

● If the battery power is low, replace both batteries. Never use a new battery with an old battery.

● If the remote control is not used for a long period of time, remove the batteries during storage.

● Should liquid be spilled on the Remote Control, remove the batteries immediately and shake so as much

of the liquid is out of the Remote Control as possible. Allow to dry for 24 hours before replacing the batteries. Test the Remote Control with the unit on the window while the unit is within easy reach to see that it works. If the Remote does NOT work, do not use the unit until the Remote has been replaced.

● Please follow environmental regulations for the disposal of the used batteries.

The Remote Control has a series of functions to become familiar with. The Remote Control is very easy to use.

1. RESET button - Should the Winbot stop working in any way, the RESET button can be pressed to restart the product and/or restore it to the factory defaults.

2. Start / Pause button - Starts and/or Stops the product.

3.4.5.6 Arrows - When pressed each arrow indicates the direction the unit will

move, remembering that the UP arrow corresponds to the front of the Winbot.

7. Pairing button - This button pairs the Remote Control with WINBOT. Notice - The Remote Control is already paired with WINBOT when it arrives from the factory. If you need to replace the Remote Control, please use the Pairing button to pair the Remote Control with Winbot. Pairing method: Plug Winbot in and place Winbot's switch to the CHARGE position. Hold the Pairing

button on the Remote Control unit. Then press the Start/Pause button on Winbot

until Winbot beeps (about 3 seconds). Pairing action is complete when WINBOT beeps.
